     This Amendment No. 1 (this “Statement”) amends the Schedule 13D initially filed on June 12, 2008 (the “Original Filing”) relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 of HireRight, Inc. Information reported in the Original Filing remains in effect except to the extent that it is amended or superseded by information contained in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the respective meanings set forth in the Original Filing.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
     The disclosure in Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following after the final paragraph thereof:
     “On July 23, 2008, the Issuer, USIS and Merger Sub entered into an amendment (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Merger Agreement, increasing the per share consideration to be paid in the Merger to $18.75, increasing the Termination Fee (as defined in the Merger Agreement) to $6.5 million and eliminating the provisions relating to the Early Termination Fee (as defined in the Merger Agreement prior to the execution of Amendment No. 1).
     This summary of Amendment No. 1 is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such amendment, a copy of which was filed by the Issuer as Exhibit 2.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 24, 2008 and is incorporated by reference herein.
     On July 29, 2008, USIS, Merger Sub and the Issuer entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the Merger Agreement. Amendment No. 2, among other things, (i) increases the consideration payable to Issuer stockholders to $19.75 per share in cash from $18.75 per share, (ii) provides that any “Superior Proposal,” as defined in the Merger Agreement, be at least $20.25 per share and (iii) sets the termination fee payable to USIS by the Issuer under certain circumstances at $6,850,000.
     The increased consideration is in response to a binding proposal received by the Issuer from a third party to acquire the Issuer at a price of $19.00 per share. Following the receipt of the third party’s binding proposal, the Issuer’s Board of Directors unanimously determined such proposal was a “Superior Proposal,” as defined in the previously amended merger agreement between the Issuer and USIS. Given this determination, the Issuer’s board of directors gave notice to USIS of its intention to terminate the Merger Agreement (and withdraw its recommendation of the pending merger of the Issuer and USIS) and accept the binding proposal received by the third party. In accordance with the procedures set forth in the previously amended merger agreement, USIS and the Issuer then engaged in negotiations with respect to revised proposals from USIS, ultimately agreeing to an increase in the consideration to $19.75 per share and to otherwise amend the Merger Agreement as described above.
